Tokyo Scoring Strings 2.0 Complete Walkthrough

[@andrewmusician]

Awesome string library! The legato look ahead feature is really cool and the multiple release types in the full version sounds great. You definitely put this library on my radar. The programming is clean and well thought out. I wish all the VST developers had these options between LL and look ahead. Cool stuff!

[@JoshWiniberg]

I'm so excited for this, you've done an amazing job.

[@IrishVideoGameOrchestra]

Thank you so much to all of the team for this wonderful library! The ability to download only certain mix mixes is so convenient, and the lookahead feature is *amazing* ♥ Looking forward to working with this as my core string library for quite some time :)

[@renancarriere7581]

I'm so excited ! Thank you for this insane work !!!

I was excited about TSS 1.0 before it even came out. But when it did come out it still seemed like it wasn't quite ready. So I didn't buy it. Fast forward to TSS 2.0 and I bought the complete version right away. It's a great companion with Performance Samples strings - where they both have that spectral technology but PS is soft, sweet and gluttonous, while TSS is bright, rich and firm. Peanut butter and Jelly 😋 - Wonderful great job I love it! And I LOVE only downloading some mixes because I there are a lot of virtual spaces and stuff these days so manatory downloading of all mixes isn't necessary. So good call!

[@justin1603]

Nice you mention performance samples....they are great...last released were amazing and vists 2 will blow away audience....but i have to say this one looks also veey promising

[@cachelesssociety5187]

Huge Kudos to the devs! This and Vista II are the 2 string libraries I have most hope placed in. I've used Tokyo Scoring Strings 1, and with the exception of fast passages it has been the most musical of my string libraries to work with. This looks like a very nice upgrade to an already great product. Vista II isn't out yet (and is going for a different vibe), so I don't think you can do better right now. I'm hoping to get a good loyalty price on Vista II when it comes out, and would use that for the super-emotional build ups, whereas this can be an all-around bread and butter library, and though I just got it installed moments ago, it's clearly dry enough to handle all my reverbs beautifully.

This library it’s great, with a new update would be awesome to have the real Con sordino samples!

[@laurentlabede]

Very nice update ! Thx.

[@ProFleer-ep4wq]

Absolutely marvelous.

[@DesoloZantas]

This update is awesome! I do wish there were dedicated playable runs that trigger in the look-ahead to make the strings sound even more realistic, but the library is already huge, so it’s all good! 🎶😅

[@秃秃星夜]

So, I heard some anime OST arrangments in this walkthrough... Like 「英雄願望 〜アルゴイゥ卜~」 ... Well, very looking forward to the next library of Tokyo Scoring Series!

[@jinzolaamenazadelamaquina8287]

THIS IS WHY IMPACT SOUNDWORKS PRODUCTS ARE WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY THEY ASK FOR

[@deeppc]

This is really good but could you please make the legato transitions a little more realistic ??? That would make it just perfect and more natural sounding,,,,!!

[@TemmeSikkema]

What an incredibly stunning string library. This is top tier stuff and must be the current pinnacle of Kontakt development. Impressive ❤

[@BartekEVH]

Amazing!!!! ❤

[@ItsEphora]

You guys are amazing! And also Sarah is a god, you can't change my mind!

[@Swanijxg-gc]

Hi! Quick question: I bought the library for my fl studuo, but unfortunately the lookahead delay compensation plugin won't work for me. In the video you used fl studio as well and it seems you are able to make it work with fl studio. Mind if I ask how you did it?

[@rrr5845]

They didnt fix anything. They just cut the delay and put the audio in sync with the visual playback in post production. The audio is still off sync in the plugin window. Saying it is one of the best features of tokyo scoring strings, one of the main selling points and then advertising the library using a semi unsupported daw, that doesnt fully support that major feature while making it seem like it does.

[@copperfield4496]

They seem to not care as well.

[@justin1603]

@impact soundworks Can we upgrade to compöete ehen buy essentials first? And is the pricedifference incl sale/introprice when upgrade within intro sale? In 'my deals' loyal custumers get extra % off but i cant find tokio essentils...but complete is listet. Why? Thanks👍

[@ImpactSoundworksLLC]

If you buy Essentials, and then later decide to upgrade to Complete, yes, you will receive a discount when you upgrade! Please check your My Deals again and see if Tokyo Scoring Strings Essentials is showing up now; we had to double-check our deal logic to make sure everything is working as it should be.

[@SMAAAASHTV]

200GB is insane for this. How does the update more than double the original install size?

[@WalkerUnknown-nx7yu]

Because of the Additional Mix Mixes

[@WalkerUnknown-nx7yu]

Means new recorded samples(hopefully)

[@Maplefoxx-vl2ew]

i literally still can't even install this. asked 2 different places now waitin for a reply on the file sizes for each mix. apparently you can download just the default mix only so it's not all the 200gb file size.. but they dont' tell us what the size of each mix is in Pulse downloader.. been waiting for a reply from support for a day now.

[@WalkerUnknown-nx7yu]

@@Maplefoxx-vl2ew if you want to take full advantage of the 2.0 update, then downloading the full size package is necessary

[@Tremendouz]

​​@@Maplefoxx-vl2ew I installed it from scratch (I don't have TSS1) and the Cinema mix alone is 33.6 GB, although it needs more than that during installation. I don't know how much exactly since Pulse was claiming 490GB but it still let me start the download even if I only had 300GB free. Edit: I'd imagine each mix is the same size, except that the separate mic positions will of course take more space than the baked-in mixes

[@PurpleRevolutionMusic]

ok but what do you mean by "at least 400 GB of free space on the hard drive"? The original is only 90GB, how is the 2.0 version so much bigger? I don't have the space for that

[@ImpactSoundworksLLC]

To be clear, the 400gb requirement is just for installation as there are temporary files which are cleared after. The final size on disk is more like 200gb. The reason for the size difference is two additional complete mic mixes plus the Ensemble instrument which has its own new samples.

[@Maplefoxx-vl2ew]

@@ImpactSoundworksLLC can you pls redo this video, i have stigmatism and i can not even watch more than 20 seconds without eye pain. i also don't feel very comfortable in vi forums talking. ppl are very rude in there last time i asked for help, being rude and condescending. i don't really feel very comfortable on that forum to be honest. i emailed support , i dont' understand this update. thanks

[@maxand_singer]

Please make a Les Paul guitar.

[@justin1603]

Would be great adfition mayby when they relesde shreddage 4

[@Razerblue6]

As much as I want to like this, unfortunately the legatos transitions still sound off, there's just something that makes it sound noticeably artificial and unnatural

[@kaede_yuna]

I've always loved TSS since it launched. 2.0 is just amazing. only downside is the disk space required for download...705Gb is quite a lot

[@JoshWiniberg]

705GB?? It can't be that much 😯 That's as much as full orchestra libraries.

[@christophpawlowskimusic213]

@@JoshWiniberg i think its 70.5 gb - could be wrong tho

[@christophpawlowskimusic213]

Just checked: old version is roughly 80 gb installed

[@JoshWiniberg]

Online says 200GB required for install.

[@kaede_yuna]

@@JoshWiniberg Pulse tells me that I need 705Gb of free space to install it

[@flamewood98]

I can't believe that the "finishing installation" process took an hour and a half on my USB 3.2 external SSD. This is the worst installer I have ever seen. And after updating from ver 1.0 to ver 2.0, you cannot only delete ver 1.0. You must uninstall the entire software first and then download it again. Do you know that not everyone has high-speed Internet access? I will never buy from this company again.

[@ImpactSoundworksLLC]

Hey there, apologies for the difficulty. Regarding the installation time - this is because there are over 200gb of compressed samples, and it simply takes awhile to uncompress that much data. The vast majority of our libraries are much, much smaller and will uncompress much faster. Also, you absolutely can delete the TSS1 content. If you are having trouble with this please reach out to our support and we can walk you through it.

[@flamewood98]

The installation took half an hour, and the "finishing installation" process took an hour and a half, a total of two hours. Why did the "finishing installation" process of deleting temporary files take longer than the installation? Is there a problem with the programming? You should first do a good job of training your employees. The information about deleting the entire software and reinstalling it comes from the customer support staff: Mr. Häthén. So, if I can delete only TSS 1.0 after updating to TSS 2.0 (1.0 and 2.0 are in the same folder), which files in the TSS folder can I delete safely?
